Disliked:We got "upgraded" to a different building / their hotel, which was dirty and lacked any form of atmosphere. Every morning there were cigarette butts all over the corridors and it just smelled of smoke. The hotel also had really inconsiderate guests which really impacted our experience. We would definitely recommend staying in the main hostel building instead.

Liked:Nice location by the river with a cute outdoor area for chilling / dining, Good selection of books for swapping / reading. Very big room (twin private), Have good information about tours and arranged a tour for us to LongJi Rice Terraces. Most staff spoke enough English for communication.

Disliked:Very hard beds (Chinese style). The (western) breakfast was quite pricey and quite small. When we were there it rained non-stop, so maybe they could have a better cover over the outdoor area or remove the table football and put a couch and TV / games there. The locks on all my windows were broken. They advertise a massage service which is located downstairs - when we went there it was dark, musty and looked very univiting and couldn't find any staff

Liked:This is a brilliant place to stay in Guilin. The hostel is located down a small and quiet lane and overlooks the riverbank.Having breakfast on the terrace overlooking the river was great and I was fortunate to have double room with a private bath and shower and a balcony overlooking the river. The staff spoke good English well and could not have been more helpful and friendly. There were a range of breakfasts to choose from and they would provide lunch and dinner if required. There was a secure safe in reception to lodge valuables and the place was clean,tidy and well managed. They will also do your laundry and have it dried and ready to wear within the day and at very cheap rates. I spent only two days/nights there but loved every minute and wish I had been able to spend more time there.Would recommend this place to anybody of any age. The hostel will also arrange to have you picked up from and taken to the airport and any other travel/tour arrangements you may wish to make. This hostel is a real gem and so cheap too. You will not be disappointed if staying there.

Disliked:Nothing.

Liked:Beautiful scenery around the hotel. close to the tourist attractions and the city of Guilin city bus stop. near the night market, clean, safe.

Liked:Everything. Exceptional friendliness of the staff, excellent location, they call it a hostel but in reality it can easily pass for at least 3 star hotel in any western country. It's super clean, comfortable with spacious rooms and huge windows and comfortable bed, lots of hot water and good AC/Heating system.
